The robot with a hole in its chest—Laigushi, the one behind the scenes who controlled Amphoreus's permissions—appeared atop the cliff with an utterly indescribable expression. But after thinking it over, since that strange train car had been able to elbow the Sky Titan away, elbowing it away should have been effortless too.
So, for the sake of its own safety, Laigushi decided against trying to drive off these outsiders from beyond the stars.
At that moment, Theresa, Acheron, Stelle, and Yinyueyue, along with the mascot Himeko floating in the air, stepped out of the train car.
With a wave of her hand, Theresa put the car away to keep anyone from sneaking inside. She had turned it into a Party Car and, out of mischief, placed a Soul Steel robot modeled after Otto inside. She had only set it up after landing, though, and it had not been activated yet~
"Mm—"
"This place is so strange. It's full of ruined walls and broken buildings, and there are so many relief carvings up there?"
Stelle rubbed her head as she looked around, still somewhat dazed. She seemed to have had a brief dream in which she met a cute little pink creature that made mimi sounds.
But she quickly snapped out of it, though her head still felt a little muddled, like she had just woken from a great dream.
"Yeah, this place has a grim, murderous atmosphere. The reliefs above depict soldiers fighting."
Acheron surveyed the surroundings as she spoke.
"Right, let's contact the train first."
Himeko reminded everyone, so Stelle and the others took out their terminals and began sending messages to the Astral Express Family group.
